Dominance Games / Politics: Live and let live

Dominance Games / Politics

Libertines do it.  Degenerate wastrels and unmitigated failures do it.  Happy bums and inebriate charmers do it.  All kinds of patriotic losers do it.  Those unworthy of respect do it.  Those who are devoid of shame do it without moral compass, without faith, without hope, without charity.

Panderers do it.  Those who wish to enjoy life do it.  Those who wish to stay away from drama and over heated conflict do it.  Those who wish their nose to not be out of joint do it well.

Those who wish not to rule the world do it.  Those who wish not to rule minds do it.  Those who have grown up do it frequently.

Those who do not see monsters around every bush do it.  Those who do not see suckers ready for plucking prancing merrily in the grass do it well.

Those who take in the morning sunlight do it easy.  Those who ride the full moon do it softly.

Those who view all the paid muscle and mass intimidators, mixers, breakers and dismissers do it and shake their damned heads to the beats of their saddened hearts.   Those who listen to the winds and the breezes and the hurricanes of wisdom churning in the air do it with a sigh.

The world moves on.  The songs stay trite.  Worldly.  Wise.  Calm of spirit.  Think softly.  Carry a big stick.

Live and let live.

Fools Gold.

Dominance Games / Politics: Death songs and fixed dances

Posted in Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political science, Politics, satire with tags , , , , , , , , on January 7, 2012 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

Might makes right.  It always does.  It always will.  Might makes the world go round…gives little evil people their kicks and their fancies,,,gives little self indulgent sops their self important treasures…. gives lust fueled maniacs their days in the sun.

Might enforces law.  Might enforces order.  Might enforces the toxic holes in society left open and vulnerable to abuse.  Might enforces the happy order of the streets and the flaccid order of the conquerors of the world and the masters of the universe.

Might enforces avenues of movement, avenues of conversation, avenues of corruption, avenues of social engineering.  Might enforces directions from on high and the moral universe of the self assured.  Might is a prized thing, good to have, a pleasure to wield.

Might is a bullying thing, a slandering thing, a beating down thing.  Might is a club, a hammer, a baseball bat to the body.  Might is a mean little thing, the best servant of the uncaring.

Free speech is a precious thing.  Free speech is a dear, darling little thing.  Speak to your little heart’s content.  Say the things that make your heart sing and your feathers fly.  Say the good stuff, the bad stuff, the ground up stuff and the desolate stuff.  Be magical, maniacal, despotic, a hero for all time.   Speak to no one, speak to everyone, speak to those within earshot, to those who will not or cannot hear.  Speak for enlightenment or derision, for fame or flame.  Speak low.  Speak soft.  Speak to the gods.

Might enforces the power behind the speech.  Might enforces the directions, the saturation, the crowds, the foot soldiers, the bums and the enforcers behind the message.  Might enforces the message, the truth, the lies, the wants, the needs.  Might is the freest of all things free…. the owner of all things obtained by those more free than others.  Might buys it little words and deeds.  It is a ubiquitous, intrusive thing.  it is our gift to the gracious and the wonderful, those who have earned the right to have their messages heard.

Love the rough and tumble of death songs and the fixed dances.  A gentle ode to big fists and a wee bit of spit.  Just let them tell us what we want to hear.  The songs are never over and the melodies always linger on.

Speak to me only with thine rights to beat me into submission.

Dominance Games / Politics: No guts. No glory

Posted in Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political science, Politics, satire with tags , , , , , , , , on January 5, 2012 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

Centrist, moderate, wish washy, easily led soulless political actors are the bane of true activists, true patriots,  true believers here, there and everywhere.

Centrist, moderate, wishy washy, easily led soulless political actors are those who stand for nothing, have no fight, have no passion, have no concern for the magisterial issues of the day.

Centrist, moderate, wishy washy, easily led soulless political actors are those who are left in leftover glory when all political purpose, all political ideal, all political acumen gets filtered and steamed away in lovely orderless gas and colorless hot air.

Centrist, moderate, wishy washy, easily led soulless political actors are that which we get when the happy dictates of fear and intimidation, buff and bluff, scare them into  simpering, weak, appeasing compromising dreams.

Centrist, moderate, wishy washy, easily led soulless political actors are just all too pretty, all to friendly, all too accommodating, too reasonable, too rational, to empty; all too treacly  sweet and saccharine stiff to stand for anything of value.

Centrist, moderate, wishy washy, easily led soulless political actors are those without form, without shape, without function, without purpose; without souls and roles to pin down or heads to bash and backs to flay.

No guts.  No glory.

Dominance Games / Politics: Got to be tough sinew to survive

Posted in current events, dominance, News, opinion, political science, Politics, satire with tags , , , , , , , on January 4, 2012 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

Love the spending.  Love the messages.  Love the ads.  Love the mocking.  Love the winning, the gaining of power, the gaining of clout, the gaining of the right to be king of the outhouse.

Love the harpies.  Love the interplay.  Love the two fisted bastards and the dirty rotten assassins.  Love the mockery, the values, the big stick, the sharp sword.

Love the jealous.  Love the corrupt.  Love the big pulpits and the tough back alleys.

Love the rancid bleaters, the sovereign haters, the practical money grubbers.

Love the players, the played, the brass knuckles, the army of reheated fools.

Love the bullies, the intimidators, the killers, the sneerers, the whipped assea and the jackasses.

Love the dirt, the mire, the tearing down of the phony vestiges of civility, civilized society.

Love the root of things.

Love that dirty we are born.  Love that dirty we are made.  Love that dirty we are made acceptable for meals.

Eat.  Be eaten.  Tough grizzly meat.

Love that dirty cage and the death matches .

Break.  Kill.  Intimidate.  Got to be tough sinew to survive.

Dominance Games / Politics: God’s way of saying

Posted in Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political science, Politics, satire with tags , , , , , , , on January 3, 2012 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics:

A vote is God’s way of saying that the bond between humankind is strong enough to support support

A vote is God’s way of saying that some people are certainly good enough to sell themselves upon the open market

A vote is God’s way of saying that the power of the ballot is a strong symbol standing for the power to to have a vested interest

A vote is God’s way of saying that beauty pageants effect the mind and not the libido

A vote is God’s way of saying that the act of choosing involves the act of analyzing

A vote is God’s way of saying that you and I are just damn good enough to be taken seriously

A vote is God’s way of saying that the play is in season and that the acts can play out

A vote is God’s way of saying that the social contract is enforceable and that it is sealed with a kiss

A vote is God’s way of saying that we fight for the right to have the circus

A vote is God’s way of saying that the currencies of lust can be muted by an informed public

As they can be

Dominance Games / Politics: The marketplace of need.

Posted in Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political science, Politics, satire with tags , , , , , , , , on January 2, 2012 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

The age of the cultural tyranny of the droll majority.  The information age, a boon to all manners great and small for breaking the strangleholds of information, misinformation, disinformation held by the access holders and coy dupes of power elites that had rammed the noise of certainty down the throats of all.

Now, come a courtin’ and offering the world the much needed chance to exchange good dim information and well intentioned half baked ideas for bad dim information and bad

Moments of sanctity of idea and deference to cultural wants, the moments of  grand miasmas and journeys from fact to idea, analysis to critique have been spread upon the breads of bleached sustenance with the jellies and jams of weak nourishment and hidden craft.

The wide eyed and the vain, the chosen and the smug, the irredeemably lazy and the loud all are together co-mingled, all smart enough together to set agendas, facilitate meaning, understand that which may be important to survival, free movement, free thought, power, abuse of power, sham.

The wide eyed and the vain, the chosen and the smug, the irredeemably lazy and the loud, the selfless and the selfish are all the writers, editors, preachers, proselytizers of the fine art world of thin fabric and faded color.  The cloths of their spinning are cloths wide and sparse, cloth covering all in the protective fabric of base consensus.  Tools of unpracticed  craftsmanship and scant care work mean and well in the marketplace of need.

Dead information is better than bad information.

Dominance Games / Politics: Love the muggers…again

Posted in Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political science, Politics, satire with tags , , , , , , , on January 2, 2012 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

A reprise of thoughts.

Since all processes around all politics are fixed only when they are not and it is no great surprise that all of our paragons of virtue and sincerity, hawkers and talkers, buyers and sellers, dregs and bastards and freedom lovers all, fight mightily for their very own little trips, sends, ends, songs and stories, fights and flights of fancy….. That they and fight mightily not, never, nil and with little understanding of or care for the preservation, reflection, representation, happenstance or systemic virtues of a  non comic, non demonic, non dead democratic republic…….

Politics ain’t bean bags and the stakes are always high, the pressures always great, the threats to law and order always lurking,  the urge to maximize power a fact of dread human existence.  With the evils of the world always looking, lurking, spawning, crowning one is left to be happy with those who just don’t go for outright thuggery, oligarchy, gangsterism, the bums rush and the souls nullification…… the not so tough bargain when seeing hearts of hearts.

With the no there there to incentify a thought for a system  of rational political markets, limiting political markets, non fixed, non intimidated, non slanted, faked, baked or voided political markets….. why have markets protected from scum

The holier than thou, the disciplinarians at the gate, the self righteous buffoons in chief, firm and fair reformers with flair, sure to be naive practicing cynics with grudge, killers with tools are sure to be stopped by all who have no vested interest in political outcomes or the roles of competing interests making workmanlike honest dynamic policy.

No push is a push too far?  No war is a war too childish?  No world view is a world view too acceptable ?  Those who love to skin ripe enemies work through the virtues of man and cut to the chase.  Virtue fondles sin.  Love fondles grand muggers.  Love the muggers.

Dominance Games / Politics: Come the new year

Posted in Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political science, Politics, satire with tags , , , , , , on January 2, 2012 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

So the dust will be cleared and the trumpets will blare and the nominees will battle it out and office holders will hunker down and do their dirty and they will save the world by their passion, determination, wisdom and pride and honor.

The middle will hold and smile and laugh and pretend not to disappear.  The wings will foam and foment and pretend not to seek unlimited control of all thoughts, all things, all songs, all days, all deaths, all moral high grounds and all ways to sneer and look down one’s nose.

The power vacuums will rise.  The systemic vulnerabilities will seep puss like a canker sore and there will be no place and no means for a broad based sharing of wealth and power.  The mechanisms of order and survival will kick in as they must as mobility is lost, learning is killed, access to governance is false and controls are put upon economic well being and decent into the lives of wage slave or bum, supplicant or lost soul, debt ridden, broken loner and those who ask what the hell is the point of it all will be a morbid trip.

Common purpose will come as an illusion, the only common purpose being the effort to keep the barbarians at bey.  The social contract will be broken as it is one that implies a unified whole of a county, one with shared interests and goals.  Trust will disappear and there will be no reason for cohesion save defense of order, the allowance of misery, the pride of hate.

The bonds of a common destiny will be a cynics derision.  Come the new year.

Dominance Games / Politics: Show me the river

Posted in analysis, Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political science, Politics, satire with tags , , , , , , , on December 29, 2011 by B Schiff

Dominance Games / Politics

The new year and the winter of our thrills.  The promise and the cold.  The hope and the dark.  The future and the trials.  The body politic and the illusions of sunrise.  Show a path to the grand parties and celebrations of the season.   Show a path to the foils of life and the joys of ease.  Show a path to a good nights sleep.

Show a path to an outstretched hand, the calming wit, a soothing gravitas.  Show a path to a willing patron saint of wretched staunchness and honorable pride,  Show a path to the springtime of actors acting for good purpose, for the rough dirt of the rough work.

Show a path towards a synthesis of good minds and true, fair thoughts and chaste.  Show a path towards the illusions left to those who wish the way home, the way to make good happen.

Show me the river.
